Looks like the pilot is a sleep

One of his 20 minute naps ... that's all he's allowed in one go !!

EDIT

21:40 .. They woke him up to increase engine power so as to reduce battery charging from 28 amps to 25 amps, cleared to climb to 12000ft , and then told him to start another rest cycle .... !! so 21:42 he goes back down to snooze !!
